3. How long did it take to complete?
I did it in between my days off, but about 3 weeks.
4. What was the hardest part when constructing it?
The hardest part of constructing this cosplay was the gold lining on the cape, it's more time consuming then anything.

I love the spandex suit. I now understand why people cosplay super heroes/villains, spandex is so comfortable!

I debuted this at Emerald City Comicon 2014

My next cosplay project is the manga version of Sailor Pluto! I have a pretty good sized Sailor Moon group getting ready for Sakura-con!
